The JIRA Misc Custom Fields plugin's objective is to provide several new types of custom fields for use in custom JIRA workflows (although at this time it only provides one), as well as useful JQL functions.
Included custom fieldfields:
- Calculated Number Field : a calculated custom field returning a number (integer or float). It is a read-only field that returns the result of the evaluation of a formula, such as the addition of two other fields.
- Transition Date/Time Field : a calculated custom field returning the date and time of the last execution of a specified workflow transition.
- Transition Caller Field : a calculated custom field returning the caller of the last execution of a specified workflow transition.
Included JQL function:
- currentUserPropertyAsList (new in 1.1): a JQL function that returns the value of a property of the current user, transforming comma-separated values into a list of values.

The plugin is a "type TWO" plugin, which means that the plugin can be installed by copying it to jira-home/plugins/installed-plugins or, better yet, using the excellent Atlassian Universal Plugin Manager.

Indicating the transition
The formula transition should be included indicated in the field description inside an html comment (so that it remains invisible when showing the field description), preceded by the following keyword: @TransitionId:@@Formula or @TransitionName: (note the colon at the end). For example:
Panel | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
or
Panel | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
You can naturally include the real description of the custom field as well. For example:
Panel |
---|
This field represents the date and time of the number Resolution of Affected Versionsthis issue. |
The formula itself is a Java-style expression that can reference any issue field value, include arithmetic operators as well as any other Java operator, and Java method calls (such as the .size() example above). Access to issue field values is achieved by the following syntax:
